Replying To Onion Breath: "I don't think Dowling is county senior standard tbh. Buggy for sure. You're right about midfield. We're in trouble there. The big guys who play their for Carlow clubs are all too slow. So we're depending on breaking ball. In fairness we've lots of quick lads who can hoover it up. But Div 3 will be a struggle." Call me naive but I don't think the big lads in midfield need to be exceptionally mobile. Modern game with new rules is now a running and pressing game but if you have 6 willing lads to win breaking balls and cover the pitch in half back and half forward lines you're not doing too badly. Our biggest issues are just ball winners in midfield. Ruth last year did so much of it in the league and when out for the championship it showed. Anyone from that Ballon side to possibly come in given how young they are? CarlowJuniorB (Clare) - Posts: 238 - 18/10/2026 22:41:52 2697816 Link
